Venezuelan Forces Train for Asymmetric Defense Amid U.S. Tensions

The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78), a nuclear-powered supercarrier which is the largest aircraft carrier in the world, anchored in the Bay of Palma before it was deployed to Latin America.                                


The Venezuelan military is reportedly preparing for a guerrilla-style defense strategy should the United States launch an attack. Military officials emphasize that conventional warfare would place Venezuela at a disadvantage against U.S. forces, making irregular tactics a more viable option.

Training exercises have focused on mobilizing smaller, highly adaptable units capable of operating in urban and jungle environments. Analysts suggest this approach reflects a broader doctrine of “asymmetric warfare,” designed to prolong conflict and increase costs for any invading force.

Observers note that Venezuela’s preparations highlight the government’s intent to resist external pressure through unconventional means, even as diplomatic channels remain strained.
